Bridgelux Inc of Livermore, CA, USA, a vertically integrated manufacturer of solid-state light sources for lighting applications, says that its new Vero Series LED array light source will be backed with what it claims is the world's first 10-year warranty for chip-on-board (COB) products, reflecting the lifespan of LED lighting.
In 2010, Bridgelux was the first company to introduce a 5-year warranty for COB products. The new 10-year warranty applies to Vero Series LED arrays shipped on or after 16 April 2014.
The announcement was made at the Light + Building 2014 tradefair in Frankfurt, Germany (30 March - 4 April), where Bridgelux has introduced the OLM Series integrated subsystem for outdoor applications as well as several new CCT and CRI combinations available for its Vero Series LED product line. The firm says that its Vero Series LED array portfolio gives manufacturers the flexibility to develop and manufacture light solutions tailored for specific applications, delivering the light output and color temperatures required for retail, hospitality, commercial, industrial, residential and outdoor lighting applications. For example, Vero Series LED arrays can be used to create fixtures that deliver ultra-white light for surgical theaters and healthcare facilities, or cool-white ultra-high-CRI light combinations for television studios. Vero Series products can also be used to tune color temperatures for bakery, grocery, deli or textile displays.
Also at Light + Building 2014 (in Hall 4, Level 2, Stand J31), Bridgelux is showcasing new Zhaga options for the Vero Series LED arrays, further enhancing its compatibility and flexibility with Zhaga-based luminaries around the globe.
